I don't think you understand my points? MP3/itunes vs. WMA, Itunes/MP3 WON. Thats the point. Of course these aren't competing now, because MP3 won. MP3 is like the firefox of media, an open source standard with apple modified for their own standard. A few years ago MSFT wanted WMA to be a contender, it isn't and its over now (for msft). As to IE vs. firefox, come on, its who has the momentum at the time who is winning, not the legacy past. IE is the legacy past. If firefox continues to gain on IE, they are the winner, now. 85% market share for IE vs. what from 5 years ago? 99%? Sound like a winner to you? MSN messenger has not market share. I don't know where you get your numbers, not from Gartner.
